A win over Alabama would be a bigger resume boost than Kentucky’s 29-point win over Louisville. The Crimson Tide are currently ranked No. 30 in the RPI, which falls within the Quadrant 1 parameters. Kentucky’s NCAA Tournament resume is solid, thanks to plenty of wins that fall in Quadrant Two. Another Quadrant One win would all but lock up an NCAA Tournament bid.
